Finding the variant that matters
Looking for variants but not exactly sure which sequencing path to take? Targeted sequencing can help you focus your sequencing capacity on a set of key genes or regions, saving you time, costs and resources. You can investigate these key genes and regions at a high read depth and even see rare variants at low allele frequencies. This type of analysis may not be possible with whole genome sequencing.
Applications
Targeted NGS can be used for multiple applications such as:
- Profiling of DNA variants in solid tumor and hematologic malignancies
- Hotspot detection in solid tumors
- Examination of variants in mitochondrial DNA
- Pain and ADME pharmacogenomics
- Human identity and paternity testing
- Assessment of germline mutations for inherited diseases
- Profiling of all exonic bases in BRCA 1 and BRCA2
Success stories
"QIAseq panels are able to get into difficult regions of the genome because they utilize a single primer extension design strategy. Up to 1500 samples can be sequenced simultaneously."
Dr. Fergus Couch, Mayo Clinic
"The hands-on time of the QIAseq Targeted DNA Pro library prep is down to around 6 hours, which means that we can do a library prep within a day. This is very attractive for cancer research labs where the turnaround times are short."
Dr. Barnaby Clark, Laboratory Lead for Precision Medicine at Kings College Hospital NHS Foundation Trust
